    Two cylinders $A$ and $B$ fitted with pistons contain equal amounts of an ideal diatomic gas at $300 K$ . The piston of $A$ is free to move while that of $B$  is held fixed. The same amount of heat is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in $A$ is $30 K$ , then the rise in temperature of the gas in $B$ is ..... $K$

    If one mole of an ideal gas at $\left( P _{1}, V _{1}\right)$ is allowed to expand reversibly and isothermally ($A$ to $B$ ) its pressure is reduced to one-half of the original pressure (see $figure$). This is followed by a constant volume cooling till its pressure is reduced to one-fourth of the initial value $( B \rightarrow C ) .$ Then it is restored to its initial state by a reversible adiabatic compression ($C$ to $A$). The net workdone by the gas is equal to  ...... .
